I hope that the Cavaliers don't back down from attacking the rim. They need to make GS work hard on defense, and make Klay Thompson and Steph Curry expend a lot of energy on defense.

If cavs are going to take one on the road this first one would be probably the best opportunity

It's hard to think that you're going to go to California and overcome the jet lag, against a team that beat ya last year, and set a record for win totals, the home court disadvantage, and I've seen a Le'bron team lose a series this way, a few times before.

For the next two weeks both teams will be travelling on about the same schedule back and forth from Cleveland to the Bay area.. by game 7, jet lag will not be an excuse.

I don't think they will. Our 3 point threat and GS's lack of a big man will really help open up the lanes.

Don't forget foul trouble. We can get 3-dumb when force those to happen. Finish hard in the paint and force fouls. Sitting a few of these unbeatables down helps us. Push the ball.

When we drive and predictably throw it out to the perimeter, we got hurt. Force them early a lot, to play defense. We get lazy loafing back. Old School: Outgrun your man.
Make your man perform on defense.

Underdogs rock! Go, Cavaliers.

If I'm a pro sports player, I'd want to come out to heavy metal playing. Something mean and dominating... Something like this:

Things change.

I know the songs we used to listen to in the locker room, before football or basketball games and practices are outdated, sadly.

I remember years back the songs played at Browns stadium.

None of those are really played anymore. Things change.

Now, the songs they play at the stadium make me want to puke. I'm old. Things change.

I just hope if we get beat tonight, it isn't a beat down. Kevin Love needs not to choke, for the whole series. Rise up. (((Please!)))

The key to the series is turnovers and rebounding. Iggy physically can’t handle lebron by himself over a 7 game series. KD obviously had length and shooting, but defending Lebron is like trying to defend a damn tank that’s going to come out you full steam.

That's the thing. Cav's fans worry about match ups, but forget that the other team/fans are worried also.

I'm excited for the series. I'm, at the same time, worried. Call it Cleveland syndrome I guess.

Maybe this is a good sign. Knowing that before the Normandy invasion the names of the beaches appeared in some popular news publications crossword puzzle.

Consider these were puzzles on Wheel of Fortune last night.

( Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus.;

Adventure of a lifetime.;

Hometown Favorite.;

What to buy.; )

So maybe it means the Cav's will finally bring a championship to somewhere in Ohio.

I still say y'all will win games 1, 3 and 6, adding to the historic devastation that's almost home like.


Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

The Cavs need to win tonight. Bottom line. Set the tone.

I don't mind the Warriors taking games 2 and 5. Win Game 6 at home and watch the city just light up.

We can do this. All of the "experts" are not giving us a chance based on the way GS played the last 3 games. We are mentally tougher than OKC and more talented in the skill positions. WE HAVE TO WIN TONIGHT!!!

Love is the key to this series. He has to be an offensive presence from the beginning. Delly needs to commit a couple of hard fouls on Curry to let him know its not going to be easy.

I would like to see Mosgov commit 5 early hard fouls on Green also, won't happen, but would love to see it to let him know whats up.

I truly believe the Cavs in 6. It needs to happen. This is the year.

GO CAVS!!!

Yeah, but, during football season, you watch games at 10 a.m.

That has to stink as well. I go to church, I come home, trust me, the last thing I need is a reason to crack a beer at 10 a.m.

I like waking up at ten and then having football all day. It would be hard to watch the SNF game when it starts at 8:30PM.

walk into Cleveland's locker room ... look at Kyrie and Lebron:

"I just want to tell you both good luck ... we're all counting on you."


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Jeudy is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Tillman is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Ford are split in the backfield as Flacco takes the snap ... Here we go."
